TP Z61m Flash and Java slow

["J.Keßler" <webmaster@bananas-playground.net>]

Hello everybody.

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad z61m. It is one of those discontinued series,
so I got it for less.

I run Debian Lenny on this and so far I'm happy with it.

- But I have noticed that Flash applications in Firefox (Iceweasel) are
slow and sometimes not loading.
- And then I habe a big play button on each flash object, which I have
to click fist before the slash elements are activated. This is
somethings useful but it would be nice to know where I can deactivate this.

- Also I must say that applications written in Java have some display
problems. The application I mean is ZendStudio 5.5.

With a connected power-supply it is less frequent but running on
batteries sometimes the col with the numbers is messed up and not
updating correctly.

I had Gentoo before on this laptop and I those problems (java and flash
slow) were no there.
So it must be a configuration or optimization setting.

I would be happy if someone could help or has any ideas about this.

If you need some more Information, please ask.
